Poison Rune

Dragonborn rune that poisons enemies for 3 damage per second for 30 seconds.

Poison Rune is an unusual Restoration spell: it actually hurts the living. When triggered it poisons targets for 3 damage per second over 30 seconds – 90 in total – which ignores armor and magic resistance. It comes from the Dragonborn add-on.

Tips

Useless against poison-resistant foes like undead and automatons.
